My slideshow works how i want it to but I cannot figure out how to swap my play button. "play_button.gif" name"slidebutton". I want it to change to stop_button.gif. the same way it would have changed from "start" to "stop" or "stop" to "start" if i used:

<input type=button name="slidebutton" onClick="ap(this.value);" value="Start" title="AutoPlay">

instead of trying to use an image.

Please help!

From a brief glance at your code this looks like the function you need to changefunction ap(text) {
document.slideform.slidebutton.value = (text == "Stop") ? "Start" : "Stop";
rotate();
}
So rather than saying Start or Stop, lets change the style to start_button and stop_buttonfunction ap(text) {
document.slideform.slidebutton.style.backgroundImage = (document.slideform.slidebutton.style.backgroundImage == "start_button.gif") ? "start_button.gif" : "stop_button.gif";
rotate();
}I havnt tested the code though, so please tell me of any errors you get and we can work from there.

no luck with that. I was thinking maybe both the slidebutton.value and the slidebutton.style.backgroundImage both needed to be on there but had no luck wth that either

I got the original format from here http://javascript.internet.com/miscellaneous/image-slideshow.html and tried to make some mods.
